You're experiencing the same negative thoughts, worries, memories, feelings, urges, and relationship issues, over and over. It seems like nothing you try works. Some things you do even seem to make things worse. In therapy you want to be heard, understood, and respected. You want to work on the issues and concerns most important to you. Regardless of how difficult it's been, you have potential to live well. As a collaborative, strengths, and action-oriented therapist I can help you struggle less with thoughts, feelings, and urges, so you can spend more of your time and energy on being the person you want to be.
We use your experience with suffering to design experiential therapeutic processes. As experience yourself responding effectively to difficult thoughts, worries, memories, feelings, urges, and relationship issues, etc., you become more free to focus your awareness and energy on being the person you want to be in life.
We all suffer from negative thoughts, worries, memories, urges, and relationship issues from time to time. Often we feel stuck, overwhelmed, like nothing we do helps. Regardless of the life challenge, I can help you struggle less with suffering and spend more time being the person you want to be. To chat, email or call for a free 15 min consultation.
